Whats this I hear about Keith splitting from his wife and having to put his house up for sale?

Apparently they split last year and going through the process. Keith put up their house for sale, but I heard he was hoping they'd get back together. Apparently she said no about coming back home and it seems that may have led to him hanging himself.

What in the fuck is going on with all these people hanging themselves? Suicide, in general, is an awful trend, but there's something about the hanging aspect that makes it even more disturbing.

Speaking from some experience, hanging is generally the easiest option to most people. Overdosing all depends on what you have on you (in your home) and can be really hit or miss, and any other option (jumping in front of train for example) require you to actually motivate yourself to go out, whilst hanging can be done with many house hold items (you'd be surprised what can be turned into a noose) and when you've trapped yourself indoors it's easy to convince yourself it's the best option.

That how my mom went, hung herself in our basement. Terrible to think about the ones you suffering through that, because alot of the time it's not like an execution where your dropped from a height that breaks your neck and your just dead. The thought of being strangled by your own body weight is horrifying.

Sorry to get so dark guys, I just haven't had someone's death effect me like this new awhile.

So sorry man, yeah I've had that thought what it must be like and it sends shivers. I hear a-holes says stupid crap like suicide is chicken shit, but no, it takes a lot of balls to follow through with something like that. So sorry for your loss. I almost lost a close friend who was about to commit suicide due to a change of meds, but luckily gotten to in time. Keith's suicide hit me very hard with how much they have had a part of my life.
